The
second personal coming
of Jesus

If Jesus has been with the church
for 2,000 years,
why did he promise
to come again?
|
 |
Pentecost
was NOT
the second advent.
At
the time
of our Lords second presence, the world will be far from converted
to God.

Buddhism


|
 |
Witnessing
to the world
does not imply
the conversion
of the world.

What
is the
main object
of the gospel now?
"At [Gods]
right hand"
not a location,
but authority
and power.

King Charles II
on his throne

 |
The
period between
the advents is for
the develop- ment
of the church.

The selection
of the church...
The
reason for
the apparent delay in blessings.
The
Churchs mission is
to witness.

God has not yet even attempted
the worlds conversion. |
The
first advent REDEEMS. 
The second advent RESTORES.

|
A
future restitution
for every man, woman and child...



"Rightly dividing the word of truth"
Two lines
of thought
divide Christians: |
 |
Election
Vs.
Free Grace

Gods selection
of Israel
is a type
of the great work for the world.

"I am not sent but to the lost sheep
of the house
of Israel."
Matt. 10:5,6
|
 |
Gods
gift
is unlimited.
The
Second Adam and
the Second Eve

"The Spirit
and the Bride
say, Come!"
Those
in the tomb are prisoners
of hope.
|
 |
The
majority
of mankind
have never
heard of Jesus.
What has become of the multitudes who
have died?
What is their condition?
Atheism
Calvinism
Arminianism
|
 |
Christ
is the only basis
for salvation.

Peter's Faith

The Gospel sent
to the Gentiles
Will ignorance
save men?
|
|

The Law did not bring life to Israel
Many
Christians wrongly say
that God
will not condemn the ignorant.
God
has
a blessing for all,
a better way.
|
 |



What will happen
to the heathen?
In
due time,
there will be
full knowledge AND
appreciation.
How will the
"good tidings
of great joy"
be to
"ALL PEOPLE"
|

|
Why
is mankind
in a condition
of suffering?
"God
is love."

Every
man
has not yet
been enlightened.
Was
redemption
a failure?
"Behold, I bring you good tidings
of great joy,
which shall be to
ALL PEOPLE."
Luke 2:10
|

|
Will
all benefit from Christs death?
The
key is
the ransom:
"To be testified
IN DUE TIME."

The Crucifixion
Does
death
end all hope?

How will
"all men"
come to know
the truth?
|
 |
God
will not
give everlasting life
against mans will.
A
general
salvation and
the special salvation.
All
who die
in the Millennium
shall die
for their own sins.

True light
will eventually
enlighten
every man. |
 |
Restitution
is promised
for all mankind, including the
people of Sodom.
There
will be
an opportunity
for all in the
Day of Judgment. |

Lot leaving Sodom
|
Israel
is beloved
for their
fathers sakes. 
Father Abraham
The
"New Covenant." |

The Old Law Covenant will be replaced with
a New Covenant
|
Christ
returns
to open the doors
of the grave.
Every
member
of the human race has a place
in Gods plan.
Promises
of God
are a certainty
"Confirmed to
God in Christ."
Gods
thoughts
and plans
are above our own.
Distortions
of truths.
Calvinism
says
God is wise
and all powerful,
but ignores love and justice.
Armenianism
says
God is loving
and just,
but ignores
wisdom and power.
God
is the Master
of His purposes.

Rejoice!
Your deliverance draweth nigh!"And
when these things begin to come to pass, then look up and lift up your heads;
for your redemption draweth nigh."
Luke 21:28 |
